JustZIPit: Simple & Free ZIP Tool
The ZIP compression market is flooded with feature-packed software, but JustZIPit is not one of them! In the field of ZIP software, JustZIPit is "little ZIP program with less". So how is "less" a good thing? Well, the idea is that ZIP software has become unnecessarily complicated -- frustrating to most users who just do not need more complexity.
Consider WinZIP -- a most excellent program -- with a user manual of over a hundred pages and a "Quick Start Guide" ten pages long. It presents a sharp contrast to JustZIPit's total documentation of just one paragraph. Whereas WinZIP presents wizards, an eight-tab options dialog and over ten screens (just during installation), JustZIPit does not even have a user interface -- only a progress bar. In fact, all of JustZIPit's functionality is accessed through explorers context-menus.
Q: So is less really better?
Naturally, that really depends on your ZIP needs. Less documentation, less features and less configuration options can mean less complexity, less confusion and less frustration. And in this case also less money -- because JustZIPit is completely free.
So, if all you want to do is ZIP and unZIP, then JustZIPit is the easiest way. However, you may want to download WinZIP if you need remote procedure calling access to specific sections of a 128bit-encrypted TAR file over a remote telnet session using secure tunneling through a private wormhole. Oh, did I mention that if all you want to do is ZIP and unZIP, then JustZIPit is the easiest way?
Q: How do I use JustZIPit?
After installation, you will see JustZIPit UNZIP commands on your context menu when you right-click any ZIP file. You will also see JustZIPit ZIP commands when you right-click on a folder or file.
Sorry but that's pretty much all there is to it!

Respected Mr. CHAD,
I am a blind person and I was AMAZED by the Speed and the EASINESS of "JUSTZIPIT".
Your software is a real time saver and so EASY to use. I mean just a right click. I am REALLY THANKFUL to you for this FREEWARE.
- SUNIT.
Freeware is great, but you guys take it to the limit!
Thanks for great software. I wish I had tried your offerings before buying the "brand name full-featured" backup software, and wasting many hours trying to get it to work properly, without success.
Back2zip worked right the first time, is totally intuitive, and has worked flawlessly since.
Fantastic!
- Stu Denny
Thank you, thank you, thank you for JustZIPit! It has always seemed so absurd to me that file compression utilities have been getting more and more complex - and costly!

I would like to thank you for this great utility, I am really enamoured by its simplicity, ease of use and user friendliness, really fantastic.
I tried PKZIP and WINZIP, the complexity of those programs for simple tasks zips my mind up.
- Joaquim Dias
In my many years of working with computers, I've dealt with at least a dozen ZIP programs. In all that time, I've never found as practical a ZIP program as JustZipIt. I have no doubt that it is superior to anything else available - and yet it's free!
Many thanks for this magnificent program.
- Shmuel Himelstein
Back2zip Rocks! It is by far the best... I have come across.
- Jake S.
I have been taking Back2Zip on a test ride for the last few days and I find it a wonderfully simple and reliable program.
I am really impressed by what it does and how it does it. Thank you,
- Elmer H. Seale
